Abstrakt

Głównym problemem badawczym niniejszego artykułu jest sprawdzenie, czy i w jaki sposób wybrane formy i funkcje zagospodarowania przestrzeni miejskiej wpływają na rozmieszczenie kradzieży oraz kradzieży z włamaniem. W analizie wykorzystano dane dotyczące przestępstw zarejestrowanych w latach 2016–2018 w obrębie administracyjnych granic miasta Krakowa. Rezultaty przeprowadzonych badań są zasadniczo zgodne z wynikami podobnych analiz w zakresie, w jakim wskazują one na związek pomiędzy wzmożoną aktywnością przestępczą sprawców a dostępnością potencjalnych ofiar lub obiektów ataku. Większe zagęszczenie zarówno przestępstw ogółem, jak i kradzieży ogółem występowało przede wszystkim w tych obiektach lub bezpośredniej bliskości obiektów, które w różnych celach gromadzą duże zbiorowości (węzły aktywności) lub są miejscem licznych przepływów ludzkich (węzły komunikacji). Co jednak istotne, jedne tego typu funkcje zagospodarowania współwystępują ze zwiększonym zagęszczeniem wszystkich typów kradzieży, inne zaś jedynie niektórych z nich. Wyniki niniejszych badań nie pozostają natomiast w zgodzie z podstawowym założeniem teorii racjonalnego wyboru, wskazując na wysokie zagęszczenie przestępstw w bezpośrednim sąsiedztwie kamer monitoringu publicznego i prywatnego, jak również w odległości do 50 metrów od komisariatów policji.
